I hate writing bad reviews but I do think it’s imperative that we let these restaurants know what they are doing wrong. First of all we waited 2 hrs for a table. This was our choice because we wanted to try this restaurant and we thought was good. My honest opinion after trying the food is it wasn’t worth the wait. We tried the biscuits and gravy first and they were bland. No taste whatsoever. We also ordered the Mediterranean omelet with pancakes. The omelet tasted very funny. I am not sure if they know what this taste like. I love omelets but this was not it. The pancakes was like out the box pancakes. The syrup was watery and didn’t have a good taste. This was my first time eating here but I will not got home back. Customer service was good however the food was enough to not make me want to come back. We ended up taking our food to go after a couple of bites and gave it to our dog who turned his nose up at it.

Great food, even better service

Corn Beef Hash, if you enjoy this this is a great place to eat. The portion size was almost to much but it hit the spot. Their pancakes were fluffy and tasty.

Waitress was incredibly rude.

I'm on the fence. I've been going to this place for 40 yrs. I visit as many locations as I can. I don't know if it's just cut backs or what? My omelet looked deflated. They don't offer American cheese. The syrup is like water & it had a funny taste. After talking to the people at the table next to me....i ended up trying/tasting the syrup from they're table. Taste way better than what they gave us. Ruined our pancakes with the bad syrup. Not to mention our pancakes were about a size & a half bigger than silver dollar cakes. Conpared to what I'm accustomed to, they weren't appetizingat all. Just small thin sponge cakes. The manager came to the table after complaining about the syrup & she even agreed that they taste different. She replaced the pancakes & even agreed that my omelet looked skinny & deflated but didn't deduct anything off the bill for the inconvenience & frustration. We ended up taking everything to go. This place doesn't represent the quality, serving size & taste of the brand. It was my 1st time at this location & they only got 3 stars because i know the brand so well. I might give them another try.

The food wasn't too bad and the prices were reasonable. The ambience was good and the servers were attentive and pleasant. I got the corned beef hash and eggs over easy and i wasn't too impressed. There weren't enough potatoes and the egg was overcooked. The net result was a dry, monotonous pile of salty meat not unlike dog food. Another in party got the migas. According to them, it was really just an omelet and they weren't too happy either. The last person in our party got the breakfast burrito and they really liked it. Probably the best part of our meal was the pancakes, which were nice and fluffy.

Restaurant puts tamper proof seals on the bags but don't seal them. I ordered pickup through doordash, I received my order andy bag wasn't seal. I called the Restaurant to see if they didn't seal my bag or if there was a possibility that my food was tampered with. I spoke with the store employee and she stated, " the doordasher is responsible for sealing the bag. They are too busy to do it" I responded with, "the protected seal is to protect our food from strangers, yet... yall give them our food open and unsealed. The employee then stated, "ma'am, they haven't did anything to your food.How do she know that??? Whats the point in a tampered proof seal if the Restaurant doesn't seal it and rely on the pickup delivery company to do it???20.00 for 1 pancake and 3 slices of bacon and I can't eat it. Its 2022; there's some sick scary people in this world

WOW! Service is really good and the food, Homemade Syrups, pancake batter...yes indeed! It was so delicious, fresh and hot wish we had one in Beaumont, TX though! Not Expensive either and the Fresh Squeeze Orange Juice, Lord!

It is faster to add yourself to the waitlist for the restaurant on Yelp BEFORE you arrive!!! ?? The Pumpkin Pancakes are so good I ate half of them with no syrup and just the whipped cream! The Banana Pancakes are just as amazing! The omelette is baked so if you like a harder scramble on your eggs, you should remember to ask to cook it longer! Bomb! Spinach, cheddar, and mushroom with ham and bacon added! ?????? The service was fast and our waitress Amanda T. was a pro! ??❤️?? Definitely recommend for breakfast!!!

I just had a wonderful grown man sized heaping helping of banana pancakes and the house coffee and let me tell ya, it was amazing. The service was great and the food was even better.
